Would like to see area for motorcycle recreation to get bikes off the streets. Continuing support for conventional sports. Mountain bike trail development including upgrades for disabled riders.

Kia ora my name is Vivienne Puti Wilson, and I am standing to represent the community of Kawerau.

Kawerau is a unique town where locals enjoy a leisurely stroll or a brisk walk. We are fortunate to have free hot pools, a skatepark, a choice of gyms, the river and creek, a bowling club, and a sports club, to name a few.

I do see the potential in refurbishing the Ron Hardie centre to promote indoor activities and increase usage including after-hours i.e., roller-skating, badminton, ping-pong, and basketball. In saying that, what needs to be improved is how the community is consulted. They are the experts, and really need to have a say about how they want to improve physical activity in Kawerau.
